Interview 121608 Brahm Revel creator of Guerillas
Written by reagu   

Brahm (rhymes with Rom!) Revel is an artist on the move, following his muse and his monkeys! Brahm steadfast pursuit of his comics career is quite motivating, and I really enjoyed talking to him. His wonderfully expressive drawing style is married to a very effective knack for storytelling. You really get the feeling of being in the story. To all the listeners, have a very Merry Christmas, and I'll be back next year, January 6 for a whole new year of PLANET COMIC BOOK RADIO!

PODCAST 120208 Rob Osborne, Absolute Tyrant
Written by reagu   

Rob Osborne is lightening in a bottle! I met him briefly at Wizard World Texas back in Nov. 2007 and had a longer talk with him at APE this past Nov. I knew he would be a perfect guest for the show. Rob's a driven creator, a man with an active imagination and a passion to get his work seen. Just the right combo for an independent cartoonist. Listen to the wit and wisdom of Rob Osborner folks, and take some notes while you're at it!

112508 PCBR One Year Anniversary Show
Written by reagu   

Well listeners, it's been a year since the first episode of Planet Comic Book Radio! First show was back on Tuesday, November 20, 2007. I've had a great time bringing you interviews with so many talented cartoonists and publishers and other creative individuals in the comics art. Thanks to all the listeners of the show, and to my wonderful guests. My goal has always been to spotlight the hard-working and creative individuals following their dreams and instincts in creating their work. The past year of the show has been a testament to that. Let's plan for another year together!

Interview with Alan J Porter, author of James Bond: The History Of The Illustrated 007
Written by reagu   

Alan was on the show back in May previewing the book. Now, the book is out and it was time to bring Alan back! I've been a Bond fan myself since reading my first Ian Fleming book back in 1982, so it was a Double-0-Pleasure to have Alan on the show and talk about the 50 year history of 007 comics.
